This is Roann McCloskey's debut with the Tower. Roann's background is in improvised comedy, quite far from the complexity of Hedda Gabler; however, she has fallen in love with Hedda and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Roles with other companies have included Ann in All My Sons, Helen in Under The Blue Sky and Jack in Jack and the Beanstalk.

This Daniel Ball's first show with the Tower and he's very much enjoying it. It's
also his return to the stage after a number of years. He trained as an
actor in the latter part of the last century and was occasionally employed
professionally. In 2010 and 2013 he produced two plays on the London
Fringe, he presents a film themed radio show and reads the local news for
Radio Forest in Epping and he's also a volunteer reader for Talking Newspapers.

Karen Walker has been a member of the Tower for many years and played a wide range of characters. A bit of a tour whore, Karen has flown the Tower flag
from Cornwall to Edinburgh, Paris to Gibraltar, Seattle to Gloucester, Mass. A little closer to home she is pleased to be returning Upstairs at
the Gatehouse.

George Turner's previous shows with the Tower include Tom in The Accrington
Pals, Peter in After The Dance Upstairs at the Gatehouse and recently
Adam from Someone Who'll Watch Over Me. Other appearances include roles in Pinning Butterflies, the Open Opera series at the Royal Albert Hall (Central Saint Martin's/London Sinfonietta Orchestra collaboration), Sonic Cinema series (Central Saint Martins) and Flood (National Youth Theatre).

Robert Reeve was first let loose on stage in 1971. His roles for the Tower include Toad in The
Wind In The Willows, Warbucks in Annie, Henry II in The Lion In Winter,
Dracula in Dracula, Danforth in The Crucible, The Stranger in The Lady
From The Sea, Salzella in Maskerade, Booth in The Voysey Inheritance
and Walpole in The Doctor's Dilemma.

Hedda Gabler is Lisa Varty's first show with the Tower Theatre and she is
delighted to be a part of it. She has appeared in Uncle Vanya, Futures, Be My Baby, House & Garden, On the Razzle and Trojan Barbie with the
Questors Theatre, where she trained in the two-year performance course.
Prior to this, she studied Theatre at the University of Glasgow and performed often with Student Theatre at Glasgow (STaG), including in An Acre and
Change at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Other roles include Hermia in A Midsummer Night's Dream with Outlet Arts, and Isabella Bird in Top Girls at the James Arnott Theatre.

Anna Whitelock's recent roles for Tower include Marguerite in Largo Desolato and
the Widow in The Taming of the Shrew. Other work includes playing Miss
Tilehouse in The Sea, Margot in The Diary of Anne Frank, work with
Theatre Voce in Toronto and Eureka Theatre in London. Anna studied
acting at Mountview and Central in London..
